Abstract

The effects of teaching by television have been explored in a number of studies dealing with a variety of subjects. Some of these studies in areas of home economics are cited to demonstrate advantages of the medium. Findings from the author's own study, concerned with teaching nutrition in 5 to 7 minute programs, are summarized to substantiate her contention that the potentialities are great and that home economists are "naturals" for utilizing such a medium. Evidence of the effectiveness of teaching was elicited by testing and interviewing a sample of homemaker-viewers.
